Morphology

repacker = repack (transparent) = re + pack + er

If a learner knows the verb 'repack', the suffix '-er' straightforwardly gives 'a person or machine that repacks'.

Etymology

Repacker combines re- 'again' and pack 'to put things together', just like a packer who fills boxes. That's why a repacker is a person or machine that moves products into new or different packages so the items are ready to sell or ship.
